Multitude Mondays

Today I am thankful for yesterday’s remindersof the beauty of being in Your outdoor sanctuary….the sway of pines against sky, magic swayand song….oh let me hear the sigh of Your wind in those trees in my soulforever more….

Thankful for a carpet of pine needles, moregrand than any berber or import rug you can name.

Cool whisperings in the air of solstice rest, winter’s deep ponderings.

She rests from her labor.

What a treasure to be reminded once again, how I need this quiet, this filling up ofmy soul; this rest that satisfies, lingers deep for when I need it next.

As we walked from tree to tree looking up I said, “Do you think when we are in Heaven we will remember our times on earth? Or will we be so overwhelmed with everything we won’t give it another thought.” She said, “I don’t think we will give it a fleeting thought.” I said, “I don’t know, maybe little glimmers of things.” Then I said, “No, you’re probably right.”
